+# mathfam256
+
+LaTeX2e kernel 2015/01/01 increased the upper limit of math alphabets from 16
+to 256 for XeTeX/LuaTeX. Also, pLaTeX2e kernel 2016/11/29 introduced the similar
+change for e-pTeX/e-upTeX. However, the upper limit for math symbol families
+remains unchanged, so only 16 symbol fonts are available.
+
+This package increases the upper limit of math symbols from 16 (LaTeX2e default)
+to 256, using `\omath...` primitives. These primitives are originally introduced
+in Omega, and are currently available in the followings:
+
+- e-pTeX/e-upTeX (Japanese TeX engine)
+- Aleph (successor of Omega)
+
+## Supported formats
+
+The package mathfam256.sty works on the following formats:
+
+- pLaTeX (run on e-pTeX)
+- upLaTeX (run on e-upTeX)
+- Lamed (run on Aleph)
+
+All of these are enabled in TeX Live by default.
